The Screech Owls have come to Salt Lake City for the Peewee Winter Games - with the championship game to be played on the same ice surface where the Canadian men and women won Olympic hockey gold!
Nish has plans to run his own competition: the Gross-Out Olympics, featuring everything from taping players to dressing room walls with duct tape to the "Snot Shot" - seeing how far they can fire a jellybean using only their noses. He also has a team contest to see who can figure out the Great Nish Secret and guess what the nuttiest Screech Owl of all has buried at centre ice for good luck.
But that secret pales once the Owls find out something strange - something terrifying - is going on in the tunnels deep beneath the magnificent hills surrounding the Olympic site.

Article on the role of owls in Roman mythology.

^Mythology Home Search OwlPages.com
Owls in Roman Mythology
In early Rome a dead Owl nailed to the door of a house averted all evil that it supposedly had earlier caused. To hear the hoot of an Owl presaged imminent death. The deaths of Julius Caesar, Augustus, Commodus Aurelius, and Agrippa were apparently all predicted by an Owl.
"...yesterday, the bird of night did sit Even at noonday, upon the market place, Hooting and shrieking" (from Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar")
The Roman Army was warned of impending disaster by an Owl before its defeat at Charrhea, on the plains between the Euphrates and Tigris rivers.
According to Artemidorus, a second Century soothsayer, to dream of an Owl meant that a traveller would be shipwrecked or robbed.
Another Roman superstition was that witches transformed into Owls, and sucked the blood of babies. In Roman Mythology, Proserpine (Persephone) was transported to the underworld against her will by Pluto (Hades), god of the underworld, and was to be allowed to return to her mother Ceres (Demeter), goddess of agriculture, providing she ate nothing while in the underworld. Ascalpus, however, saw her picking a pomegranate, and told what he had seen. He was turned into an Owl for his trouble - "a sluggish Screech Owl, a loathsome bird."

148. James McCabe's Essay On Spotted Owls

http://filebox.vt.edu/users/rturpyn/essay.htm
James has been receiving tons of emails from everyone... thanks! We've had a blast reading your responses to James's stupidity. This is James McCabe's essay on Spotted Owls. He actually submitted this for a grade. Background Information: James McCabe is Travis's roommate from last year. James hasn't been to classes in 6 weeks or so. One night, while intoxicated, James decided to check out his teachers website and see what the class was up to. He learned that an essay on the topic of Spotted Owls was due the following day. In his drunken state James created probably one of the funniest papers I have ever read. The professor to whom the paper was given has since then asked James for permission to post the essay on the course website. The professor is using the essay as an example of what NOT to do Here is the paper (with spelling errors and all): James McCabe jmccabe@vt.edu Assignment # 8: Owl vs. Owl Spotted owls are stupid. They can’t live anywhere that isn’t hundreds of years old and untouched by human hands and they breed themselves into extinction by mating with a natural enemy and potential predator, the barred owl. They are simply stupid, and out of all animals, they are quite possibly the ones most deserved of an untimely death.

154. Great Bird Of Paradise
Learn about the bird of paradise. Information includes description, habitat, and diet.
http://aviary.owls.com/bird_paradise/birdofparadise.html
The bird of paradise is closely related to the bowerbird and crow and belongs to the family Paradisaeidae. There are 43 species, 35 of which are confined to New Guinea. There are 3 species in the Moluccas and several species of the less spectacular riflebirds in eastern Australia. Spaniards in the 16th century coined the name bird of paradise when magnificent bird skins were brought to Europe aboard Magellan's ship, Victoria These are medium-sized birds, perhaps crow-sized, and are remarkably beautiful. They have strong feet adapted for perching, and bills of various shapes. The trailing plumes, short velvet-like feathers and beautiful collars are used by the male in their courtship dance. The females, in comparison, are very plain. The males have established territories where they dance for the females. The dances are as remarkable as the birds. Perched on a branch, the birds sway and crouch or stand erect, tilt forward and backward, some even hang upside down. Every species has its own type of dance. Birds of paradise live in forests and frequent the high treetops or lower scrub. The open nest is built in tree branches and sometimes in holes. The female handles nest-building, incubation of the one or two eggs that are orange streaked with brown, and raising the young. The males are polygamous. Their diet consists of insects, worms, small vertebrates and also fruits and seeds. The voice is quite plain. The best known and most beautiful are the members of the genus Paradisea. The Great Bird-of-Paradise, Paradisea apoda, of Aru is a rust reddish brown on the back, the head is yellow, the throat is emerald-green. It has long tufts of golden-orange feathers on the sides. The two elongated central tail feathers are very thin. When courting it spreads its wings and hangs upside down.

Owls
There are four owl species commonly found in Virginia, only three of which are associated with forests. They overlap very closely with their daytime counterparts, the hawks, in terms of habitats and food preferences. These birds are resident on their territories year round, and have tended to become very tolerant of man's presence. Many of them have showed up in suburban parks and backyards recently. Three of the four species will use artificial nest boxes. So, as a group, owls are probably more responsive to management practices than hawks. Great Horned Owl The great horned owl is the nighttime counterpart to the red-tailed hawk. It resides primarily in upland areas with a mixture of forests, fields, and brushy habitats. Preferred forests tend to be primarily pine, especially for nesting, where it typically adopts an abandoned crow's nest for its own. The horned owl has been compared to a flying bobcat because of its deadliness. It normally hunts from a favored perch tree where it scans openings and brushy areas for food. Its diet includes almost anything it can pick up including rabbits, squirrels, ducks, snakes, and any other prey items that venture out at night. Mixed management with lots of openings or cleared areas benefit horned owls.
